HISTORY OF COMBINED EVENTS

Combined events at the Summer Olympics have been contested in

several formats at the multi-sport event. There are two combined track
and field events in the current Olympic athletics program, a
men's decathlon (100 metres, long jump, shot put, high jump, 400
metres, 110 metres hurdles, discus throw, pole vault, javelin throw,
and 1500 metres) and a women's heptathlon (100 metres hurdles, high
jump, shot put, 200 metres, long jump, javelin throw, and 800 metres).
The first men's events came at the 1904 Summer Olympics: a triathlon
had long jump, shot put, and 100-yard dash events, while an all-around
championship saw athletes compete over ten events, forming the basis
for the decathlon. No combined events were held at the subsequent
games, but the 1912 Summer Olympics saw the introduction of the
modern decathlon event and also a men's pentathlon (which lasted for
three games). The first women's event came in 1964 in the form of
the women's pentathlon. This was amended to include two more events,
becoming the heptathlon at the 1984 Summer Olympics, reflecting the
development of women's sport.
The Olympic record in the decathlon is 9018 points, set by Canadian
athlete Damian Warner in 2021. Jackie Joyner-Kersee's score of 7291
points to win in 1988 is both the current Olympic and world record for
the heptathlon – this remains the only occasion that record has been
broken at the Olympics. The men's decathlon world record has had a
strong link with the competition, with the Olympic gold medalist
breaking the world record in 1928, 1932, 1936, 1952, 1972, 1976, and
1984.
NATURE OF COMBINED EVENTS

Combined track and field events are competitions in which athletes participate in a
number of track and field events, earning points for their performance in
each event, which adds to a total points score. Outdoors, the most common
combined events are the men's decathlon and the women's heptathlon. Due
to stadium limitations, indoor combined events competition have a reduced
number of events, resulting in the men's heptathlon and the women's
pentathlon. Athletes are allocated points based on an international-standard
points scoring system, such as the decathlon scoring table.[1] Other longer
combined events do exist, such as the icosathlon (double decathlon) for men
and the tetra decathlon for women. Indoors, both men and women compete
in the tetra decathlon, with slightly different events to the women's outdoor
version.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson you should be able to:

1. Define sexually transmitted diseases

2. State the modes of transmission of sexually transmitted diseases.

3. Mention the ways of preventing the spread of STDs

CONTENT:
STI simply means Sexually Transmitted Infections or Diseases. STIs have a
profound impact on sexual and reproductive health worldwide.

According to World Health Organization (2006) More than 1 million STIs are
acquired every day. In 2020, WHO estimated 374 million new infections with 1 of
4 STIs: chlamydia (129 million), gonorrhea (82 million), syphilis (7.1 million) and
trichomoniasis (156 million). More than 490 million people were estimated to be
living with genital herpes in 2016, and an estimated 300 million women have an
HPV infection, the primary cause of cervical cancer and anal cancer among men
who have sex with men. An estimated 296 million people are living with chronic
hepatitis B globally.

STIs can have serious consequences beyond the immediate impact of the infection
itself.

 STIs like herpes, gonorrhea and syphilis can increase the risk of HIV
acquisition.
 Mother-to-child transmission of STIs can result in stillbirth, neonatal death,
low-birth weight and prematurity, sepsis, neonatal conjunctivitis and
congenital deformities.
 HPV infection causes cervical and other cancers.
 Hepatitis B resulted in an estimated 820 000 deaths in 2019, mostly from
cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. STIs such as gonorrhea and
chlamydia are major causes of pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility in
women.

How STIs is transmitted

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are spread predominantly by
unprotected sexual contact. Some STIs can also be transmitted during
pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding and through infected blood or blood
products. STIs have a profound impact on health.
 Examples of STI
1. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Public awareness surrounding HPV has increased in
recent years, due in large part to the availability of an HPV vaccine.
2. Herpes.
3. Syphilis.
4. Hepatitis.
5. Trichomoniasis.
6. Gonorrhea.
7. Chlamydia.
8. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)

Preventing Sexual Transmission

1. Abstinence from sexual contacts – the best way to avoid HIV;

2. Be faithful to your sexual partner;

3.Condom use – male & female condoms are both effective in

preventing HIV & other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as
Hepatitis B & C, gonorrhea, syphilis, etc. Untreated STIs significantly
increase the risk of HIV transmission. Early diagnosis & treatment of
STIs is essential and key to life.

2. Define drug misuse
3. Define drug addiction
4. Drug tolerance
CONTENT
NOTE THAT: Drug misuse, abuse, and addiction are all serious public health
challenges. Since all of these deal with the use of illegal drugs

Meaning of drug abuse

Drug abuse is when a drug is used for a different purpose than intended, or in
excessive amounts. Drug abuse can involve illegal drugs, as well as medicines.
There are many problems associated with drug abuse, such as drug tolerance,
dependence and addiction.

DRUG ADDICTION
Drug addiction is defined as a chronic, relapsing disorder characterized by
compulsive drug seeking and use despite adverse consequences. It is considered a
brain disorder, because it involves functional changes the brain circuits involved in
reward, stress, and self-control. Those changes may last a long time after a person
has stopped taking drugs
DRUG MISUSE
Drug misuse is defined as the use of a substance for a purpose not consistent with
legal or medical guidelines (WHO, 2006). It has a negative impact on health or
functioning and may take the form of drug dependence, or be part of a wider
spectrum of problematic or harmful behaviour.

DRUG TOLERANCE
Drug Tolerance is a person's diminished response to a drug, which occurs when
the drug is used repeatedly and the body adapts to the continued presence of the
drug.

SELF MEDICATION

This means treating oneself with drugs without the doctor prescription or
recommendation.

WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE DRUGS

In general, people take drugs for a few reasons:

 To feel good. Drugs can produce intense feelings of pleasure. This

initial euphoria is followed by other effects, which differ with the
type of drug used. For example, with stimulants such as cocaine,
the high is followed by feelings of power, self-confidence, and
increased energy. In contrast, the euphoria caused by opioids such
as heroin is followed by feelings of relaxation and satisfaction.
 To feel better. Some people who suffer from social anxiety, stress,
and depression start using drugs to try to feel less anxious. Stress
can play a major role in starting and continuing drug use as well as
relapse (return to drug use) in patients recovering from addiction.
 To do better. Some people feel pressure to improve their focus in
school or at work or their abilities in sports. This can play a role in
trying or continuing to use drugs, such as prescription stimulants or
cocaine.
 Curiosity and social pressure. In this respect, teens are
particularly at risk because peer pressure can be very strong.
Adolescence is a developmental period during which the presence
 of risk factors, such as peers who use drugs, may lead to substance
use.

EFFECTS OF DRUG USAGE

1. It damages internal organs of the body.

2. It causes high blood pressure.

How can I stay safe when swimming?

Look for and read the signs
Follow the posted safety information. Signs and rules are there to protect you and
to keep pools clean and germ-free.

Walk, do not run

Never run on the pool deck. This area can be very slippery, especially when wet.
Be careful getting in and out of the pool
Use a handrail if possible and avoid climbing on slippery or unstable
surfaces.

Look before you leap or dive in

Shallow water, underwater logs or big rocks are dangerous when you dive or jump
in. Look for no diving signs. Check the area each time before you enter the water,
as swimming conditions may change. Shallow water, underwater logs or big rocks
can cause serious injury.

Stay within your abilities

Swim only where you feel comfortable. Do not go farther or deeper than you can
handle. At beaches stay inside marked areas or close to shore. Cold water or rough
conditions may impact your swimming abilities.

Never swim alone

Use the “buddy system.” Have a strong swimmer with you, even if there is a
lifeguard.

Play carefully
If you lost consciousness after hitting your head against pool walls or rocks, you
could drown.

Do not drink alcohol

Injuries involving alcohol are a common problem around water bodies, including
include private pools, hot tubs, beaches and swimming holes. Alcohol slows down
your reaction time and could put you to sleep, which is dangerous and can lead to
more or worse accidents, which is especially dangerous in a hot tub. Do not drink
alcohol around water bodies.
